THERE'S one way to settle that ques.
tion," said Burt, who was aggravated
to exhibit a bravery that he was. far
from feeling. I'm go now. II any OF
you want to come, now's your time. "
He walked slowly forward and dis
appeared in the darkness.
Nobody followed him. Some wanted
to cry out TO him to stop, and moi
tempt tine powers Of darkness; bat the
bantering that had occurred restrained
them.
They waited in suspense for his re-
turn. He was absent not more than
ten minutes; but in the painful silence
that prevailed no man spoke word.
He came back hatless, his usually
ruddy face pale as ashes, his eyes wild
and staring.
Eagerly they gathered about him and
piled him with questions.
"Not here" he said, family, look
ing over his shoulder AS il fearful that
some ghostly presence was pursuing
him. Lets get away from this ac-
cursed place. Come down to the tay-
ern, and I'll tell you"
They all eagerly complied.
Seated in the ale-house, with Ais
dropping courage braced by a stimu-
lant Tom Burt gave his plain and
strange narrative.
By daylight it was being repeated in
every house in the town; and there
after the vicinity of the old Lobdell
house was Stunned as though the
plague had possessed it.

HOUSE or MYSTERY.
The narrative Of what Tom Burt had
seen and heard in that brief ten min
utcs was delivered to his gaping COM
panions in the tavern with all the old
loquacity. 1t is given here in the third
person, as we wish to strip it of all I'M
necessary verbiage and details, and
free it from all the mannerisms OF
speech and peculiarities Of sailor dia-
aect with which the hero of it managed
TO spin it out for whole hour.
He said, that as he slowly came up
to the old house, there was not ray
of light proceeding from It
Its long front rose before him like a
great black wall. All was silence and
quiet about it
He had heard some talk during the
day about Mrs. Willis and Helen leav-
ing the front door of their part of it
open on their hasty flight. He thought
he would get near enough to sec
whether it was still open.
He did SO. He plainly saw that il
was open. He heard the sound of the
clock striking eleven.
He thought that his feelings were
highly wrought up, considering where
he was, and that he was alone; yet he
knew that his senses were all alert and
acute.
He waited for a moment after the
clock had ceased to strike. For mo.
inent he heard nothing.
Then, seeming to proceed from some
where along the abandoned part of TIN
house, he heard moan. A moan By
a person in mortal agony might have
sounded so. 1t was not loud, but dis
tinct
He was terrified. He was reluctan
TO approach nearer TO the place from
which the sound seemed to proceed.
Again the moan-repeated. agaiI
and again. 1t was muffled, breathles
but sounded strangely like humai
cry for help. ..--s--
Against his will, by the fascinating
terror OF the time and place, his re
luctant feet were drawn toward tn
place. He came as though drawn b.
magnetism. 5tss
Window-places, half-raised from tn
cellar, were feature of the house. A
one of these, midway of the unuse
part, the sailors feet were arrested.
The sunken part had been nearl
filled up by dirt and rubbish. Tn
window-panes had been broken out

On frosty morning of early De-

ashore at Proyincetown. The color
was returning to his face, his step had
something of its old elasticity, he had
thrown aside his canes. Sharp pains
from his desperate hurts occasionally
distressed him; but youth, strength and
q vigorous constitution were triumph

fort that poor Captain Willis had
pictured for him and Helen, but a

SOMETHING PRACTICAL.

1t is refreshing to turn from the
heat and turmoil of politics, to
the calm and peaceful pursuits Of
agriculture, and to forget, for the
ment, the worry and seuffle of a
vigorous campaign, in the serene
contemplation of a yield of nine
bales of cotton from an area of
six acres.
This was done, this season, by
Mr.. ]. H. Gilfoil, the energetic
assessor of Madison Parish, and it
was done on land not of the best.
1t was with the Peterkin cotton,
that this result was attained, and
it is a result attainable by any
man, on any land in Madison, but
you can't merely plant the seed
and then take things easy, The
crop mnst be attended to, looked
alter, cultivated. There should
never should be less than q bale
II cotton, made to the acre, in
Nadison, and If the soil is treated

WRONG AS USUAL.

The Item asserts that the TINES
Twas down on Gibson but now its
Topped" When the Item first
started, it INDUCED in the most ex.
travagant assertions, and for the
first two months or so of its exist.
ence it was kept busy retracting
statements that it had made. I'm
improved by this experience it re-
news the same old policy. A mis-
statement is made either in error
or with deliberate malice. Now
the TINES said not a word to indi-
cate that it was "down on Gibson"
neither has it advocated the re-
nomination of Gen. Gibson. 1t
consequently could not have been
"down on" him. nor have Topped.
The Item has simply made mis-
statement, either with malicious
intent or from the fact that the
writer who wrote it, was not around
when the brains were distributed.
OF course this is unfortunate, and
can't be helped, but when a man
is in such condition his friends
ought TO take care of him.

Editor Times: Referring to the
article in the "Item" of the 1st
December, intimating that l have
charged illegal fees, l have only to
say, the law is plain and reads as
follows:
Acts of 1887 of page 1871. The
Sheriffs, Coroners and Constables,
the parish of Orleans excepted ,
shall be entitled to receive ten
cents for every mile they may ac-
tua land necessarily travel in going
to and returning from the service
of any process, and in no case shall
milage be allowed for greater
distance than the place ofresidence
Of the person on whom the process
was served, and when the return
of such service is illegal or errone-
Gus, no charge shall be made there
for.
Any one who says that / have at
any time or in any proceeding
whatever charged more than the
fees fixed by law, is guilty of will
full and malicious falsehood.

MILEAGE FEES.

In the matter of mileage fees il
may be said that they are part Of
the perquisites of the Tax-Collect.
or's Office, and that he is entitled
to mileage in each case of seizure.
That there may be several parties
seized on one plantation, does not
deprive the collector of his legal
fees, and there is no law that says
it does. As q clincher the asser.
ton is made that no lawyer has
ever questioned one of Capt.
Holmes bills of fees.
